POSITIONS

UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS.  We currently are full of wonderful undergraduates and do not have a open undergrad position. Normally, I will consider highly motivated students who are freshman, or sophomores for volunteer to pay positions in the lab. Historically I am particularly interested in engineering, biochemistry, and chemistry students. I will only prioritize students who want to pursue a PhD and will not hire students who want to complete a professional degree (e.g. PharmD, MD).

GRADUATE STUDENTS. Please see Grad Life in Ainslie Lab page. Dr. Ainslie takes students primarily from DPMP, but also UNC BBSP and UNC/NC State BME. Students are not directly admitted to her lab via DPMP or BBSP, but rather they do rotations first.

POST DOCS. 

The Ainslie lab is located at The University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC in the Eshelman School of Pharmacy in Marsico Hall. The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy is #1 in the country and our program in Pharmacoengineering & Molecular Pharmaceutics is the only one solely focused on drug delivery.  Post doc positions are often funded as part of NIH funded projects. Our lab develops translational therapies to deliver therapeutics and modulate the immune system. Post docs in the Ainslie lab you would be working closely with an interdisciplinary team of engineers and scientist and will be trained in every level of the research from polymer synthesis, formulation characterization and evaluation in cellular and animal models.  We partner with scientist and clinicians who support our work.
